Green & Co.'S report on cotton futures saws:
1.-THE market has failed to realize any sangune
anticipations that may have been entertained
by the bulls and the situation for the day
proved weak and stupid, with only temporary
check on the filing Of few buying orders. The
tendency has been weak throughout, closing at
the lowest and quite tame"

| nervousness displayed whenever the clique
| houses began buying that nothing was accom-
plished Prices ranged between Soc, $3.50 and
| S6I6c all tho morning, but the volume of trade
was light On the afternoon board the crowd
were feeling very hearish, and the CLIQUE had all
| they could do to keep prices about soc. Toward
| the close June sold up to S614c, ut which it
| closed There WIZ continuation of yester-
| days closing weakness in corn. June opened re
| lower The market continued weak throughout
| loaded up too heavily during the bull movement
| of yesterday morning, and there was CON
